Chelatchie Prairie Railroad Trail Description

The Chelatchie Prairie Railroad Trail—also known as the Chelatchie Prairie Rail-with-Trail—is currently open from Battle Ground Lake State Park to a point nearly 1 mile southwest. The paved trail runs next to the Clark County-owned Chelatchie Prairie Railroad, which sees limited freight and excursion rail use.

Clark County is planning on extending the trail along the entire 33-mile length of the railroad from the existing Burnt Bridge Creek Trail near Hazel Dell Avenue in Vancouver to the railroad’s northern terminus in Chelatchie Prairie. See the project record for more information.

Parking and Trail Access

Parking for the open portion of the Chelatchie Prairie Railroad Trail can be found in Battle Ground Lake State Park on NE 249th Street/Burt Road.
